v ep Q{ F^ n u * ' ' F ot l: i[ Corruption is essentially the same, it is all about taking someone else's money into one's own pocket. In terms of process, there are differences, there are scheming, greedy, spontaneous, blindly followed, and forced.

What, corruption is still forced, is there a mistake?

There is no mistake, this corruption is really forced, forced to go along with it.

However, what the fourth elder brother thought of through Lan Ying's matter was not these, but another question, Lan Ying instructed the minions around him to take the risk of exchanging the reward he gave for silver, because the cash used for the reward was not enough, so what was the purpose of corruption for those who could obviously borrow national debts?

Yes, corruption was a crime in the Qing Dynasty, but borrowing money from the treasury was not a crime, but a fair and honest way to make money that the emperor had promised.

Of course, some people say that there is borrowing and repaying, and the money borrowed from the treasury will not be returned in the future. This is indeed the case in the future, but in the thirty-third year of Kangxi, there is really no need to repay the silver borrowed from the treasury, anyway, after so many years, only those who have borrowed silver from the treasury have not returned the silver in person.

Like the emperor's two southern tours, the officials in Jiangnan will take over in the future, but they have borrowed millions of taels of silver from the treasury, and now they have not paid back any of them.

Of course, you can also say that people are too greedy, and there are indeed such people, but the fourth elder brother doesn't believe it. Because this is not the first time that the river has had problems in the Kangxi Dynasty, as early as the twenty-seventh year of Kangxi, the river changed a group of officials, and then it was changed one after another.

When he first took office, he didn't set the fire on it, but now he has been so corrupt after a few years, and the fourth elder brother thinks that there must be something that everyone doesn't know about it, so that these people will be so disregarded when they are short of money, just like Lan Ying is taking risks now.

What is the need for these people who have the support of big forces behind them to lack money? Surely it is not eating, drinking, and having fun.

After putting this matter on the court and in the palace, the fourth elder brother was suddenly startled and stood up, his eyes were full of disbelief, could it be that there was a brother who intended to rebel!

This is not impossible, of course, the fourth elder brother does not mean that which brother is going to rebel, but that the people behind them may not be able to wait, and want to make the final preparations just in case, after all, many things have to be done in advance. Perhaps the money was originally used for personal gain, but no one knows what it will be used for.

The fourth elder brother felt as if he had opened a new door, and if he wrote an excerpt of the book along this line of thought, he would definitely be offended by the whole court, but this was not a bad thing for a prince, because it was very likely that Khan Amma's heart was more important than the favor of the ministers or the favor of Khan Amma.

At least that's what the fourth elder brother who hasn't gone to the court to discuss politics thinks so, so that he suffered a big loss later.

The most annoying thing was solved, and the fourth elder brother saw that Lan Ying was no longer angry before, although Lan Ying successfully helped him get through a difficult time, but Lan Ying's behavior violated the palace rules, and he had to teach him a lesson, the fourth elder brother said with a straight face: "Since you admit your mistakes, you are a first-time offender, grounded for one month, and punished for copying the palace rules ten times." ”

This punishment is much lighter than Lan Ying imagined, and Lan Ying can't help but feel nervous, because the fourth elder brother's virtue is to make a mistake, if he scolded you and punished you at the beginning, then this matter will be over, if he didn't say anything, just looked at it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, then congratulations on being the little black book of Emperor Yongzheng, and you will pay a heavy price in the future.

But in front of her, the four elder brothers all stood up and looked at her directly, Lan Ying didn't dare to think about anything, and kowtowed directly: "Slave thank you for your grace." Then he watched the fourth elder brother walk out of the way.

Because the fourth elder brother had no expression on his face, and he didn't say much after entering the house, Lan Ying really couldn't figure out whether the fourth elder brother was really angry for a while. Wouldn't have it be for the Zhang family's gloating, Lan Ying closed the door and began to be grounded.

In fact, this grounding day is not particularly different from ordinary days for Lan Ying, because of the low status, Lan Ying can't wander around in the North Third Institute, as for the palace, it is even more impossible, and the range of activities out of the house is just a little bit. In addition, she was used to staying at home in her previous life, and staying in the house all the time and not being able to go out was actually nothing to Lan Ying, the only headache was copying the palace rules.

You must know that there were not many rules in the original harem of the Qing Dynasty, and the meeting between men and women was not as harsh as it is now, but with the consolidation of generation after generation, people suddenly broke out and knew that they would pretend to save face, and the Qing Dynasty was naturally too. Therefore, generation after generation, now the palace rules are as thick as a brick, and it is really fatal to copy it.

However, the fourth elder brother has a life, and Lan Ying doesn't dare not do it, she also needs the fourth elder brother's pet hobby to be promoted and raised in the future to reach the peak of her life.

At the beginning, Lan Ying couldn't calm down, so the handwriting copied out was very sloppy, but it was really written by a beginner. After writing a lot, Lan Ying's heart gradually calmed down, since she took the initiative to do this, no matter whether the fourth elder brother is really angry with her or not, what will happen in the future, even if she kneels, she will go down on her knees.

The sky is gradually getting dark, Lan Ying doesn't want to copy books under the lamp and ruin her eyes, she has already hurt her eyes when she rushes to embroider before, and now she has to protect it well. After letting Mingyue withdraw, he asked in a low voice, "Wurenke was sent back?"

Mingyue shook her head: "The slave doesn't know. The outside is guarded, and even if the minions go out, they are stared at, and they don't have a chance to inquire about the news. If she didn't know that although her master violated the palace rules this time, she didn't hurt anyone, she thought that the fourth elder brother was going to be ruthless to the little master, and she was a slave and let people stare at her.

When the master and servant were worried about Wuren's life and death in the house, Su Peisheng and Su Gonggong were ushered outside, Zhang's house was next door to Lan Ying, she saw Su Peisheng coming, and naturally thought that the fourth elder brother had sent him to her, so before Su Peisheng approached, he greeted him with a smile on his face, "Grandpa Su is here this time, but come to pass on the words of the master?" Zhang couldn't wait to hear the news that the fourth elder brother praised himself or called himself to bed, right at this gate, where Lan Ying could hear it in the house.

She wants to raise her eyebrows as soon as she turns over, and she is angry with Lan Ying, she has had enough.

Su Peisheng glanced at the Zhang family meaningfully, and said jokingly: "The miscellaneous family is indeed here to spread the word of the master, and the master said that the little master of the flower was frightened by the evil slave today, and asked the miscellaneous family to send something to suppress the shock." ”

Although the concubine is not a serious master in the North Three Institutes, she can be regarded as half in the eyes of the minions. Although Su Peisheng is the personal servant of the fourth elder brother, he can be regarded as a slave, and with his cautious and cautious temperament, he does things well to the outside world.

Therefore, no matter how low the status of the concubine is, Su Peisheng will salute and greet him when he encounters it, calling himself a "slave". This time, after Su Peisheng faced the Zhang family, he actually called himself a "miscellaneous family", which obviously didn't take the Zhang family seriously, and waited for Su Peisheng's words to come out, and everyone suddenly realized.

Although Zhang's is usually not favored, occasionally some villains are rampant, but she is not a fool, and judging from Hua Lanying's performance just now, Zhang's did catch her handle, but the final result turned out to be like this?

Lan Ying was indeed punished for making a mistake, but the next moment, the fourth elder brother immediately sent a reward, which means...... There are people in the backyard who don't understand, this is clearly the rhythm of eccentric Hua's, and they are afraid that the next person will snub Hua's by watching the dishes and dishes.

Since the Hua family is fine, the Zhang family, the whistleblower, was naturally left behind by the fourth elder brother.

Men have to be hard-hearted, and unless you kill that person, or kill a man, there is no third solution.

And obviously thought that the cold image of the fourth elder brother gave everyone a misleading, thinking that no one could get into his eyes, but I didn't expect that now someone would sneak into the eyes of the fourth elder brother, didn't I see that Su Peisheng's title had become the current "flower girl" in the past!

After Su Peisheng's words came out, Zhang's original slight smug smile on his face immediately stiffened there, blinked, Zhang's face was full of disbelief, pointed to a little eunuch behind Su Peisheng holding the box and asked, "Grandpa Su said this is for the Hua family!"

Ignoring Zhang's incredulous expression, Su Peisheng nodded coldly and asked the little eunuch behind him to hand over the box he was holding to Mingyue, who came out to see the situation.

Don't say that the Zhang family is stupid, even Mingyue is stupid.

She also thought that Su Peisheng came here, even if it was not to increase the punishment of the little master, but to make the Zhang family proud, but she didn't expect that the development of things would take a turn for the worse, and what she brought was a reward for the little master. Therefore, when the little eunuch handed her the box, Mingyue was still a little unable to react, and paused for two seconds before reaching out to take it.

Well, I don't know what's in it or how heavy it is. Mingyue was not mentally prepared and almost didn't catch it, and after stabilizing her hand, Mingyue blessed her body and said: "Thank you for the master's reward, there is Lao Su's father-in-law." ”

Facing Mingyue, Su Peisheng obviously had a smile on his face: "Miss Mingyue is polite, the master said, although the thing Wuren committed this time is small, he can't start this, otherwise I don't know what he will do in the future to affect the little master of the flower, but because of the pleading of the little master, only let people beat him fifty boards."

I didn't expect this slave to be beaten, although he didn't lose his life, but he couldn't serve the little master for a while, and he was afraid that there was no one to serve the little master, so he specially asked the slave to choose a little eunuch to come over for the little master to call. ”

Mingyue can't be the master of this matter, but fortunately, Mingyue didn't embarrass her, Lan Ying had already heard Su Peisheng's words in the house, and raised her voice a little and asked, "There is Father-in-law Lao Su, thank you for my kindness." "Wuren is not around for a while, Lan Ying is really bad here, and there are some things that palace maids can't do.

The palace has the rules of the palace, such as going to the kitchen to fetch food, you can only go to the eunuch, and you can only go to the eunuch when you ask the imperial doctor to pass the word, the fourth elder brother's move made Lan Ying feel relieved, so considerate of her, obviously not only was not disgusted by the fourth elder brother, but also won the favor of the fourth elder brother.

To be honest, this result surprised Lan Ying herself!

She did deliberately let Wuren show traces and deliberately let people catch her, but she didn't expect that the person who caught Wuren turned out to be the most dangerous Zhang in the harem, and it seems that this Zhang family is not as simple as she imagined.

Lan Ying actually calculated that the fourth elder brother would be furious, and she would be able to eliminate the fourth elder brother's anger in the future, but what she didn't calculate was that things seemed to be developing in an unpredictable direction.

But for this, Lan Ying likes it very much.

Lan Ying was certainly happy, but others couldn't mention it at all, and they were even dumbfounded, and the Zhang family on the side was the one who was stunned.

Why?

Why?

It's really ...... It's unfair!

Don't say that this is the palace, but there are many unfair things among the people, and people's hearts are biased, and there is nothing impossible. The thing that refers to the deer as a horse doesn't happen once and disappears, this kind of thing is more common in the royal family.

In the end, the Zhang family is not stupid to the end, although this time Lan Ying was not brought down and was fed dog food by her, although Su Peisheng already looked down on her, but in the end, the fourth elder brother did not understand the dislike of her, she still has a chance to rise.

Therefore, even if there is more unwillingness, no matter how much anger, and no matter how much helplessness there is in her heart, Zhang also bit her lower lip and did not say the words full of anger in her heart, once she said it, it would be really over.

After waiting for Su Peisheng to leave, Mingyue raised her head and glanced at the Zhang family triumphantly, before walking into Lan Ying's house with the box, and then put the box rewarded by the fourth elder brother in front of Lan Ying like a treasure.

Lan Ying didn't immediately open the box, but looked at the little eunuch sent by Su Peisheng, this person was actually known to Lan Ying, and he was not Su Peisheng's apprentice who was written in something. Although there are many people among the eunuchs who recognize their masters, apprentices or godsons, people with a status like Su Peisheng will not recognize them, and even if they do, they will cover them to the death and will not let people know.

Besides, with Lanying's current status, Su Peisheng would not be so bloody to win her over. Although this person is not the legendary Su Peisheng's apprentice, he is also a messenger slave beside the well-known fourth elder brother decades later, and his status is a little lower than Liu Yu, who came to spread the word before.

The master behind such a slave must be the only one with the fourth elder brother, which made Lan Ying breathe a sigh of relief, she was not afraid that the fourth elder brother would send someone to monitor her, but she was afraid that the master behind the slave around her was other women in the backyard of the three northern schools, which would be very bad, and although the slave sent by the fourth elder brother could not be absolutely trusted, they could also be relatively trusted, and sometimes they could be of great use.
